Filming Locations

This location is of where Holly breaks in and finds the property belonging to Harley. This is the main scene in our film as it represents the change in relationship between the pair, and the feeling of regretting past decisions and wanting to change for the better.
Sheffield train station is the place Holly first meets Harley. This is where their friendship develops, and the station is the focal point for the end of the film, where Holly makes her key decision to stay rather than runaway from her past.

Our second location is at Barnsley train station which is where Holly starts off her journey. It signifys the start of her running away from her past life to start a fresh.

This is the location which we will be using in our first flashback of Holly breaking into a house. This shows her background and how she has been brought up.

Character Profile : Harley Edwards

Harley is a quiet boy with a privileged background. Although his parents have the money, Harley always chose to be educated at public schools, as he always sees himself as a normal guy, and hates being associated with being 'rich'. Harley has normal friends and leads a relatively normal life, he is neither popular, or at the lower end of the college hierarchy, he tends to keep himself to himself although does open up with his friends and family. Harley loves sport playing golf and football regularly, also reading and traveling most of the time, choosing to explore the country he lives in. At the start of his most recent trip, Harley meets Holly Pearson, a mysterious young girl who is reluctant to open up. The two become close right from the start, with Harley keen to take their relationship to the next level. However, unknown to Harley, Holly has a secret which threatens to shatter the foundations of their friendship, destroying any hope of more for Harley.

Character Profile : Holly Pearson

Holly Pearson has been brought up in a family that has taught her to steal to get by. At 16 she decides to run away from this and tries to leave it behind, but she soon discovers it isn't that easy. Trying to live on her own, with no home or money, she still has to continue to steal to get by. She meets a boy called Harley Edwards, and they quickly become close friends. Harley influences Holly and she starts to realise more and more the errors of her ways, but she never tells him of her lifestyle. The shock comes when she breaks into a "random" house, which turns out to be that of Harley's. He catches her in the act and Holly shocked at what she's just done, runs away onto a train heading one way to London. A text message from Harley saying I "forgive you" makes Holly think that she can't run away from her troubles and a good friend.
